My Newbie Lace Knitter prize arrived this week! It’s the DVD “Knitting Lace with Meg Swansen”. I haven’t had time to watch it yet, but I did look at the charts. I really like the neck-scarf version of a Faroese shawl, and I think that will probably be my first project from the DVD.

I started this hat July 1st. Here’s my Ravelry link for all the details and extra pictures. It was definitely a learning experience, but I think I’ll probably actually wear it this Winter!
